Description

The Porcellio laevis ‘Dairy Cow’ is one of the most popular isopod morphs in the hobby, instantly recognisable by its bold black-and-white “cow-like” markings. Larger and smoother-bodied than Porcellio scaber , this species is both hardy and fast-breeding, making it an ideal choice for beginners and advanced collectors alike.

They thrive in well-ventilated enclosures with a moisture gradient, plenty of leaf litter, and decaying wood. Colonies establish quickly and reproduce rapidly, making them perfect for use in bioactive setups as a cleanup crew, or simply enjoyed as a bold, ornamental display colony.

With their striking patterns, fast growth, and forgiving care needs, the ‘Dairy Cow’ Porcellio laevis is an excellent isopod for anyone looking to start their first colony or add a reliable, attractive species to their collection.
